Overview & Reviews

Few vehicles from overseas manufacturers have garnered as much respect in North America as the Honda Accord. It hasn't achieved this status by being glamorous, sexy or thrilling. Instead, Honda just seems to have its finger on the pulse of what Americans value most. Take an Accord for a spin and you'll find it to be comfortable, roomy, intelligently engineered and easy to drive. It's also backed by strong resale value and a solid reputation for reliability.

You'll find that certain competing sedans and coupes are quicker, more prestigious or simply less expensive than the Accord. What's special about the Honda Accord, though, is its completeness. It scores well across a broader range of categories than practically any family-friendly sedan or coupe on the market. When examined from this holistic standpoint, it's easy to see why the Accord has become an automotive icon and remains one of our editors' top recommendations.

  Satisfied Once Again - 2004 Honda Accord
  By bandwham - February 2 - 2:00 am

  I am so thrilled with my latest Honda purchase. (have owned 5 over the past 18 years) I considered a Lexus ES330 and an Infiniti G35 but after test driving couldnt justify the price difference. My car has all the bells and whistles and is exceptional for daily commutes and running about town. Honda just keeps getting better and better at understanding what consumers want. If you want reliable, responsive, user friendly transportation look no further that the Accord!! Buy one NOW, you wont regret it.

  Surpising Sedan Power - 2006 Honda Accord
  By Purist Driver - February 1 - 1:36 pm

  The V6 6-speed manual sedan is a purist automobile. It offer the best of both worlds - a family car, yet plenty of power to pass "boy racers" and Billy Bobs gargantuous SUV. Plenty of room for car seats in the back and comperable room for luggage space in the trunk. The ride is friendly, quiet, and comfortable; although, the vehicle stability control is too intrusive when you want to test the car. The VSC module is always on default, regardless that it is not manually turned on as it would be during wintery conditions. Make it a completely passive option and allow the owners to play in the sandbox without the oversight of a computer module.

  Lives up to the Reputation - 2007 Honda Accord
  By ConserveLiberty - January 30 - 9:06 pm

  This is our second Honda. My children drive a 2005 Civic LX We have been very impressed with the quality and value of that car, so when it was (finally) time to drive a car again and trade the Suburban, we researched mid- size sedans. All of the consumer claims about the Honda Accord seem to be true. Interior controls come to hand easily and logically (except the airconditioning On button), exterior is very well designed and attractive and build quality is excellent. Rear passenger room is the best of any car we sampled. Seats are comfortable for a long drive, the truck is cavernous and the eng9ine is silent and powerful. All in all, a sober, prudent, great value.

  Great car - 2006 Honda Accord
  By life_is2 - January 29 - 11:13 pm

  Great car with great safety features, not to mention the great fuel economy. Very quiet ride with very good handling. I am averaging about 25 miles to the gallon with mixed highway/city driving. I only have 500 miles so far so the engine isnt broke in yet which should yield better gas mileage. I cannot express enough on how well the engine pulls.

  Overall pretty nice - 2008 Honda Accord
  By BPW - January 28 - 3:33 pm

  Originally intended to buy an Altima but after that dealership was lame went to drive the Accord and I was sold. Its a nice, basic car and Im pleased with the vehicle over all. Rides well and the features are nice. The only complaint I would have was that w/ my 6cyl Passport I was getting 21 mpg like clockwork and w/ this 4cyl Accord Im getting 25.5 Something doesnt seem right with that. However, overall Im happy with the car.

  EX V-6 Auto - 2005 Honda Accord
  By ponypwr - January 28 - 8:00 am

  New purchase after looking at coupes and sedans from all the major players. This car really moves with the 240HP V- 6 and its a great compromise with performance, size and cost. With Accord clearance, I paid over a grand less than TMV price for coupe in Boston area. Just wish I could have found a V 6 MT at that price. All in all, a great car for the money.
